Imagine this: you‚§™ve had a few drinks at a party, and then you decide to drive your friends home anyway. As you traverse along the highway, you suddenly see blue and red lights on your mirror, and a cop signals you to stop driving and park your car on a corner.Though this may be enough reason for you to panic, remember that field sobriety tests are voluntary and not mandated under Washington law, and you may opt not to perform any of these tests, including a breath test. Should the cops see reason to arrest you, refusing a breath test at the police station is a different matter altogether, which may even lead to a license suspension. To avoid suffering from the repercussions of refusing a breath test, always seek help first from a trusted DUI lawyer who can help you with your case.

An experienced DUI defense lawyer knows that there are hundreds of ways a case may shift. The tiniest details and the smallest evidences can all be used to prove someone‚§™s guilt or innocence, this is why it is extremely important to remember these tips if you are accused of DUI: Recall how the accident happened ‚§“ Yes this is already asked of you, but when recalling important situations, do not just dwell on the major picture, but try to recall the tiniest details.

Last April, 2015, Washington State Patrol troopers arrested a man for driving under the influence near Interstate 5 and Highway 2. He was ‚§Ĺrunning stop signs, hitting the curb and driving on a roundabout‚§ among other dangerous or questionable behaviors. He was also driving a van with elderly folks from the Snohomish Senior Center as his passengers, who were just going to the Skagit Valley Tulip Festival.Later on, it was discovered that the driver volunteered to drive the seniors to their field trip destination but had taken prescription medications that may have impaired his driving skills. The passengers became uncomfortable and even alarmed because of his actions to the point that they demanded him to pull over.

"There might actually be a way to eliminate drunk driving on America‚§™s roads‚§”perhaps, even the world. A new technology is being developed that will allow vehicles to detect the level of alcohol in the bloodstream of drivers. If the driver‚§™s blood alcohol concentration has exceeded the legal limit, he or she won‚§™t be able to start the car.The technology will employ either a passive set of breath sensors or touch-sensitive contact points on a starter button or gear shift. According to federal officials, the technology could start appearing in cars in as little as five years. ‚§ĹThe message today is not ‚§˜Can we do this?‚§™ but ‚§˜How soon can we do this?‚§™‚§‰‚§‚§”said administrator of the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA), Mark Rosekind. ‚§ĹIt is a huge step forward,‚§ he adds."

"If you are stopped on the road, and suspected of alcohol DUI in Washington, you will be required to take a breath test. The state follows the ‚§˜implied consent‚§™ principle which rules that if an officer stops you with probable cause to believe that you‚§™ve been driving under the influence, then you must comply to take a breath test to gauge your blood alcohol content (BAC). An exception to this compliance would be when you feel that the evidentiary breath or blood test would damage your heath due to a pre-existing medical condition, or due to an injury at the accident scene."
